Running without thermostat may be applicable to older cars. Modern cars operating with ECU controlled by sensors might have dire consequences

I don't think this is true. I have been runing without a termostat in a hot climate country. When I have a termostat it always made a problem. Overheating.

@chrisrobertson1929 9 месяцев назад

Me too ..I always have good luck when I take the thermostat out .takes heater a little longer too work ..but what's ten minutes of my time..your. Right

@joshuadevall4182 2 месяца назад

That means you have a flow issue. Clogged radiator ect. Too low of flow with thermostat, back to reasonable flow without it. If it wasn't clogged it would flow too much and not allow enough time to cool the water in radiator.

Been running my car for 13 yrs w/o a thermostat. Never had an issue of over heating.

Been running my 2004 jeep Cherokee without one for 10 years....Never had any issues.

@@emilmar5466 I’m tempted to just get rid of it myself. Recently, I noticed there was a leak from the thermostat gasket so I went to the parts store and bought a new thermostat, next thing you know a car was overheating with the brand new thermostat. Like seriously?!? it was perfectly fine before that. My other car is starting to have an overheating issue as well.

Question did you work on your engine within the 13 years?

@CONRADOABRAHAM-br8tk 7 месяцев назад

Its not an issue of overheating because it does not correlate. The main reasons why is not advisable to run without it: 1. It will cause fuel inefficiency 2. It will cause engine parts trouble in the long run 3. It does not synch with the ECU, thus it can cause a mix-up issues in your car. Good for you that using it without it, your car is running good as you've told us. 😅

Had my toyota starlet running at 70-75C from 85-95. I changed my radiator to 2 row full aluminum. Im in Philippines.😅

@halimakbar 3 месяца назад

the concern as the video says is engine oil become thicken and may impaired engine lubrication. this is only applicable to cold weather country. but for me, living in equator country, weather temperature always hot, engine oil never thicken. and i have removed the thermostat for 2 years now, and in fact, my engine running better now.

@nicholaswathome9063 2 месяца назад

Nice thanks for this advise, want to remove mine as I’m also along the equator

My camry 2012 starts rattling noise when Coolant Temperature sensor is on. And when i switched it off the car runs in a perfect condition like a brand new car..can expert suggests what could be the fault.

2006 Toyota corolla ( 240,000 miles ) No air conditioner , no heater core ( bypassed with little 1/4 " glass lab tube. enjoy the beautiful color of added tracer ) , no thermostat , NO PROBLEM whatsoever , live in Florida and run 20 miles a day ! Direct switch to radiator to prevent overheating ! Many thanks for video , okay ?
